Re: What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
It sepends on the actual input impedance of the mic preamp. For a typical 2kohm input impedance, the capacitor should be 1.15uF for 70Hz cut-off. The actual response would be first-order, i.e. only

Re: OPA1642 SPICE Models #dualopaalice
I literally took the .lib file provided by TI, which defines the SUBCKT and appended my SBCKT to it. Yes. My intention was to account for all the pins with the parameters already defined in the .lib

Re: What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
Got it, thank you much. Then, what should be the capacitor value to cut off audio at frequencies lower than 70Hz? Thanks again.

Re: OPA1642 SPICE Models #dualopaalice
Hold on, did you also define the SUBCKT for OPA164x??? I presume you did since this is what TI provides. But I want to make sure. Basically, what you've done is to "call" two versions of the

OPA1642 SPICE Models #dualopaalice
I'm having fun with variations on the OPA Alice circuit and would like to be able to model using SPICE in KiCAD. I found the model on TI's website but it doesn't have the correct subcircuit for a

Re: What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
In order to work, it takes disconnecting one of the internal 6.81k resistors inside the preamp, or to isolate it DC-wise, which is exactly what teh capacitor does.

Re: What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
A couple of years ago, Martin Kantola shared his simple P48 without a capacitor. Pure genius! Do a search for: One resistor P48 electret mic Different pros and cons compared to SimpleP48.

Re: What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
Tj=he role of the capacitor is to conduct AC signal whilst isolating DC. Not used, as in "not there" or as in "replaced with a short"? In the former case, very low signal, in the latter case, too low

Re: What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
The capacitor blocks the 48V to your mic. The 48V via pin 3 is limited to a safe voltage by the resistor. Smaller values will make a 6dB/octave HP filter in the audio range. Mostly nor desired.

What is the role of the capacitor in Simpl48 circuit?
Dear All, My questions are, In the simpl48 circuit, what is the role of the capacitor? What happens if it is not used? What are the results at different values? Many thanks.

Re: Microphone Output Impedance
This method is valid for unbalanced loads, but not for all types of balanced loads.. This is true only if the outputs are non-floating, which is the case of the typical Schoeps arrangement, or

In the absence of a comment saying different, impedances are measured at 1kHz. Some manufacturers indicate that impedance may vary over the audio range. Anything the mktg dept deems

Question for the group on this. What is the correct frequency to measure the output impedance? I am assuming referenced to 1Khz. Or should it be 20hz to 20Khz? What do manufacturers spec? I checked
